Astoria Updates

I was out there yesterday and it's obviously getting played and worked on. In the four weeks since I first saw it, bridges across gullies and basket flags have been added. The worst thing, a month ago, was that conditions on killer hole, #6, were insane. Lots of improvement there. What was a death-defying fairway has been worked into much better shape with the footing made safer with (probably) back-breaking labor and an application of bark dust. That said, you'd better hit your target area, because to stray left or long is not advisable. One thing that really needs doing is to take a couple baskets apart and untangle the fouled chains.

Thanks for this course. You've made my provisioning day much more enjoyable.
